After thinking about your excellent points, our problems with BRO ch:
1-It seems to prefer the creamy insides,
2-thus make it less healthy,
3-city is full of ch. sellers who sell very low quality stuff to tourist.
That said, we got some excellent Belgian dark chocolate in Germany.
Am I the only one ready to contest this?!
For the chocolate quality (known around the world) and price (great value compared to high-end chocolatiers in the US and even neighboring France), I love my trips to BRU. (And as if that weren't enough, I prefer the people and the size of BRU to CDG.)
Don't know if I've posted this before, but Elizabeth was one of our top picks on the trip to BRU last spring (and new to me), and Wittamer was great as always.
